Experience the Darkest Skies in Georgia

Did you know Stephen C. Foster State Park is among the best spots in the world for star gazing? This park in the Okefenokee Swamp is a gold-tier "International Dark Sky Park," joining the ranks of Big Bend and Death Valley national parks. The designation means that the park’s skies have very little light pollution and that astronomy fans enjoy exceptional views of the moon, stars, planets and comets. Check their website often for evening programs.
